Native American theatre focuses on religious rituals, shared values, and communal celebrations of Native American tribes. They use the audience as members of the cast, rather than strictly allowing them to watch. Native American theatre is a diverse genre, yet suffered heavily when whites took over their land in North America and destroyed much of their culture. Some of the most famous pieces from Native American theatre are the Navajo Chantways, religious dramas that all begin with the creation of the world. However, Native American theatre is not limited to these epic religious pieces. Other types of Native American drama include the Plains Sun Dance, which focuses on the renewal of the world during the new year, the bear ceremonials of the Ojibway which illustrate the availability of game and survival of crops, and the moiety dances of the Pueblos that illustrate the unity of cosmic halves. While much of Native American theatre was destroyed when whites took over their land, contemporary Native American theatre still persists today. This type of theatre aims to bring together rituals and beliefs passed down with adaptations of Euro-American drama traits. These contemporary pieces are a better representation of Indians in present society.
